I guess the I6 casting is long gone.
We brought the XW home last year and went past the panel stamping plant, which was being dismantled. Was a bit emotional.

I had a squizz through these last night, made me feel very sad over what we have lost.
I would love to know half the stories this machinery and equipment could tell. It also made me think about how much mechanization is taken for granted. I doubt that the majority would appreciate how much actual work all our machines do.. Ed

And Ford don't care about aftermarket parts now. They were scrapped. They also have channels outside of auctions for getting rid of factory equipment. |
